My Story
Hi! I'm Nicole and I'm so glad you found me! I've created this section of my website just for you!
Launching an independent advocacy practice is HARD and it takes a lot of time and committment. If no one has told you that, let me be the first to tell you the truth.
There are no shortcuts, there is no easy button, there is only hard work and your doubts standing between where you are today and your sustainable and profitable practice.
I launched my advocacy practice in 2019 and by the time the pandemic hit, I was ready to close up shop. I was tired, frustrated, overwhelmed, and down right defeated. I was working harder than I'd ever worked before and STILL not making enough to pay the bills. Let alone pay myself!
Creating a Sales Pipeline
Identifying and marketing to my ideal client was a mystery to me. It took several iterations and lots of conversations to finally get clarity on who I serve and how to market so they could hear me and know with confidence I could help them.
The Solution
LOTS of coffee meetings, even more random outreach, and an unending enthusiasm for meeting new people. This is how I successfully created a sales pipeline that continues to bring me new clients, new opportunities to serve, and even more FUN in my life! If you want to learn how to build a business that can meet your needs, feed your fire, and pay your bills, keep coming back - I'm sharing EVERYTHING that has worked for me! AND I'm still growing and learning and sharing all of that with you too! If you want to join our LIVE weekly calls - Don't delay - Join us in The Circle where we share our tools, resources, and encouragement LIVE every Wednesday!!!
